The answer is that it is not possible to increase the percentage beyond 55℅

even if you add 1L 22℅ to 1L 55℅ the answer would lie between the two numbers, but never exceed 55℅

The circular bases of the traditional teepees of the Sioux and Cheyenne tribes have a diameter of about 15 ft. What is the area
LenaWriter [7]

if the diameter is 15, its radius is half that, or 7.5


\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\A=\pi r^2~~\begin{cases}r=radius\\[-0.5em]\hrulefill\\r=7.5\end{cases}\implies A=\pi 7.5^2\implies A=56.25\pi \\\\\\A\approx 176.71459\implies A = \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{177}

With a height of 68 ​in, Nelson was the shortest president of a particular club in the past century. The club presidents of the
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

a. The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is: \\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in.

b. The difference found in part (a) is 1.174 standard deviations from the mean (without taking into account if the height is above or below the mean).

c. Nelson's z-score: \\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174 (Nelson's height is <em>below</em> the population's mean 1.174 standard deviations units).

d. Nelson's height is <em>usual</em> since \\ -2 < -1.174 < 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key concept to answer this question is the z-score. A <em>z-score</em> "tells us" the distance from the population's mean of a raw score in <em>standard deviation</em> units. A <em>positive value</em> for a z-score indicates that the raw score is <em>above</em> the population mean, whereas a <em>negative value</em> tells us that the raw score is <em>below</em> the population mean. The formula to obtain this <em>z-score</em> is as follows:

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} [1]

Where

\\ z is the <em>z-score</em>.

\\ \mu is the <em>population mean</em>.

\\ \sigma is the <em>population standard deviation</em>.

From the question, we have that:

  • Nelson's height is 68 in. In this case, the raw score is 68 in \\ x = 68 in.
  • \\ \mu = 70.7in.
  • \\ \sigma = 2.3in.

With all this information, we are ready to answer the next questions:

a. What is the positive difference between Nelson​'s height and the​ mean?

The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is (taking the absolute value for this difference):

\\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in.

That is, <em>the positive difference is 2.7 in</em>.

b. How many standard deviations is that​ [the difference found in part​ (a)]?

To find how many <em>standard deviations</em> is that, we need to divide that difference by the <em>population standard deviation</em>. That is:

\\ \frac{2.7\;in}{2.3\;in} \approx 1.1739 \approx 1.174

In words, the difference found in part (a) is 1.174 <em>standard deviations</em> from the mean. Notice that we are not taking into account here if the raw score, <em>x,</em> is <em>below</em> or <em>above</em> the mean.

c. Convert Nelson​'s height to a z score.

Using formula [1], we have

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

\\ z = \frac{68\;in - 70.7\;in}{2.3\;in}

\\ z = \frac{-2.7\;in}{2.3\;in}

\\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174

This z-score "tells us" that Nelson's height is <em>1.174 standard deviations</em> <em>below</em> the population mean (notice the negative symbol in the above result), i.e., Nelson's height is <em>below</em> the mean for heights in the club presidents of the past century 1.174 standard deviations units.

d. If we consider​ "usual" heights to be those that convert to z scores between minus2 and​ 2, is Nelson​'s height usual or​ unusual?

Carefully looking at Nelson's height, we notice that it is between those z-scores, because:

\\ -2 < z_{Nelson} < 2

\\ -2 < -1.174 < 2

Then, Nelson's height is <em>usual</em> according to that statement.

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Smoking damages your entire cardiovascular system. Speaking of this Nicotine causes blood vessels to tighten, which restricts the flow of blood. Over time, the ongoing narrowing, along with damage to the blood vessels, can cause *peripheral artery disease*. Smoking also raises blood pressure, weakens blood vessel walls, and increases blood clots.

* Peripheral artery disease is a common circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to your limbs

Hope this helps :) Brainliest would be appreciated XD

goblinko [34]

The probability that Hamid guesses both answers correctly is 10%.

Since Hamid is playing a trivia game with multiple choice questions, and each question has 2 correct answers among 5 answer choices, and Hamid has no idea what the answers to a certain question are, so he needs to choose two different answers at random, to determine what is the probability that Hamid guesses both answers correctly the following calculation must be performed:

  • 2/5 x 1/4 = X
  • 0.4 x 0.25 = X
  • 0.1 = X
  • 0.1 x 100 = 10

Therefore, the probability that Hamid guesses both answers correctly is 10%.
